Well I was the early bird today as I have a fair bit of stuff to do tonight. Vote cast at 07:04 this morning.

I was utterly disgusted by the Sky coverage, the 'impartial' chair even went as far as drawing attention to coverage of Nick Clegg in the press and attempting to smear him during the debate, he put Clegg in a position where he had to defend himself not from a question from the public but from scrutiny by one of Murdochs own papers. When the debates happen next time lets hope Sky aren't given one.

Well I've found our local election cards but not the general ones :/

Spoke to the election office and we can vote without a card and no ID is required. Is that a bit iffy to anyone else?

Funny really. You can be stopped by the Police for taking a photo but you could just turn up at a Polling Station pretending to be someone else and use their vote.

exactly my point pete, what happens then if you turn up and your vote has already been cast?

Pfft... Slacker!

I was at the polling office at 0702 this morning, and was the fourth person in my ward to vote (the second seemed somewhat confused and was still there when I left

).

I've come to the conclusion that my decision to get blind drunk in Germany was far better than sitting in the hotel watching the results coming in. This despite one of my more interesting hangovers
